Givenchy Spring 2008 Couture Collection

Filed under: Apparel, Events, Celebrity Shopping

Givenchy dresses have been worn by notably sophisticated ladies for decades, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, and the Duchess of Windsor are among the memorable women who've made Givenchy the fashion legend it is today. Recently joining the list is the always stunning and stylish Natalie Portman who had heads turning when she showed up at a Cannes soiree in this elegant and refreshing Givenchy gown. Easily the best dress seen all week, I think she blew it with the shoes but c'est la vie! If you have any high class events coming up, browse the Givenchy 2008 Collection, it features some fabulous designs that will have people dying to know who "dressed" you!

Givenchy Strappy Open-Toe Bootie

Filed under: Shoes

Givenchy's been around since the 50's and has employed both John Galliano and Alexander McQueen as featured designers. Audrey Hepburn was perhaps the most notable Givenchy lover. These black leather open-toe ankle booties, are fashion forward and fun. The large silver buckle is offset by the strappy detailing, making them look both feminine and tough! These would look so cute with a black high-waisted pencil skirt. Available on shopbop.com for $995.

Givenchy Two Tone Shopper, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags


I can see myself carrying this go-with-anything black and white leather tote on a regular basis. At 18" x 16.5" x 1", it's large enough to hold everything I need and has plenty of room for additional shopping finds. It has wide, comfortable straps and the interior cell and zip pockets will prevent the awkward 'tote-dig'. A little antiqued brass studded detail and a logo luggage tag finish off the look of this simple and practical bag. $1,600.

Givenchy Leather Shopping Tote, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags

Departing from the far more common style of having separate handles that are attached with rings, buckles to stitching, Givenchy's Leather Shopping Tote has shoulder straps that are merely an extension of the calf leather from the rest of the bag. This makes it clear that you are getting the best quality leather throughout the bag, as some manufacturers take advantage of the opportunity offered by detached handles to make use of smaller scrap leather or pieces that were too flawed to find their way onto the main bag. The large tote is accented with side buckles and a logo luggage tag. Price: $1,395.
